This little panda is going to...


This little panda is going to... Christina Hor's Cards for Little Hearts card drive - heart-themed cards, collecting until Jan 31st. Do check it out!

Christina was so sweet to send me the MFT Tiny Hearts background stamp, which made the perfect background for this adorable panda digi (also from Christina). #craftyfriendsarethebest

Happy Father's Day

This is meant to be a personalized father's day card :) The koalas represent my two siblings and I - two gals and a guy - and that's why two of the koala cuties are wearing flowers!

Baby shower card

I haven't played along with the Viva la Verve sketches in a while. I love that Julee provides the exact measurements! It really helps bring the card together in a breeze. Now I just have to work on my photography skills, lol.

xoxo - Polaroid frame


Sneaking in this monthly challenge image in the nick of time! I was inspired by Ashley's Polaroid frame magnet creation.

Now I just need a small photo to tuck behind it :)

Special delivery... Happy Birthday


Hello friend! Thank you for visiting my blog today. I pinned this card eons ago and I have finally CASE-ed it :) It's such an elegant and beautiful design.

I used the big bloom from Verve's "Surely Goodness" and Concord and 9th's "Perfectly Penned". I love how the sentiments intended for the envelope work so well on this card! Easy-peasy and finished with some rhinestones.

Birthday "hi"!

Crafty friends are the best! Christina (of Christina Hor Designs) (she organizes the Cards for Little Hearts card drive!) recently gifted me the MFT balloon shaker die and it was very handy for this pint-sized card, for a pint-sized person :)

I also followed Christina's sponged sky background tutorial!

The card measures 3 1/2 x 6 3/8. The koala is from MFT Cuddly Koalas, the "BIRTHDAY" is from Lawn Fawn's So Much To Say, and I generated the rest of the sentiment on the computer. "1st!" are some leftover stickers from Michaels.

I started with the sketch from Your Next Stamp's challenge #86, but it got a bit lost along the way, haha. The colours are still there though!

Spreading holiday cheer


I am trying to clear up the scraps on my craft desk and this is a cup that I coloured over a year ago. Yay!

These little marshmallows just wanna jump in the big cuppa hot chocolate. (My husband calls this stamp set the "suicide marshmallows" set...)

Let it snow


Is it ever too early to start on Christmas cards? I'm going to say no :) I've had enough of snow for now though!

Love this faux metal embellishments technique from the ever-amazing Jennifer McGuire. It's my first time to do it and I am already itching to emboss more of these MFT snowflakes!

Panda hugs


Playing along at the Gerda Steiner Designs' monthly challenge with a rather CAS card. This panda is so super cute! I hoped to give him a bamboo-looking background with the Altenew watercolor stripes stencil, but these must be super bamboos because they grow horizontally 😂
